Apple has announced the much-awaited #IPhone14 series, the company’s latest flagship offering. In addition to the iPhones, the company also announced Apple Watch SE, #AppleWatchSeries8, Apple Watch Ultra and the AirPods Pro gen 2.
Coming to the iPhone 14 series, the Cupertino giant has introduced four models – the base #iPhone14, iPhone 14 Plus, #iPhone14Pro and the top-end iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Apple has made significant changes to the iPhone 14 series.
Apple has ditched the mini variant and launched a Max variant, dubbed as the #iPhone14. It features a large 6.7-inch display and is aimed at users who want a large display but do not wish to spend a huge amount on the #iPhone14Pro Max.
SIM tray removed
#Apple has removed the SIM tray from the US models. Users will have to use an eSIM, and Apple has said that users can easily change the eSIM. The Indian models will likely retain the SIM tray for now.
#Apple has also introduced satellite connectivity support to iPhones. This will be limited to SOS messages and allow you to easily send SOS messages even when you do not have a mobile connection.
Improved cameras on the iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Plus
The #iPhone14 and #iPhone14Plus feature a new 12MP primary camera with an f/1.5 aperture and a 1.9-micron pixel. On the front, the devices feature a new 12MP TrueDepth camera with autofocus support.
The #iPhone14 series will feature crash detection support. If it detects a car crash, it will alert the emergency services, allowing you to receive medical help quickly. The feature will use the gyroscope and the accelerometer to detect crashes.
#Apple has added a new pill-shaped notch design and notification UI to the Pro models. It has been dubbed as #DynamicIsland and offers a unique notification experience. Whenever you receive a notification, it expands and gives you a preview.
#Apple has introduced the #A16 Bionic chipset built on the 4nm process and nearly 16 billion transistors that will power the Pro models. The company has claimed that it is the fastest chipset ever.
Forget making back money, it looks like Brahmastra is taking down PVR & Inox investors with itself. With early reviews pouring cold water on #Brahmastra’s prospects, India’s largest theater chains PVR & Inox have cumulatively lost over ₹800 crore in market capitalization today.
In Indian mythology, #Brahmastra is known as a weapon of unstoppable destruction, which can only be stopped by its counterattack astra (weapon). Ironically, the movie could end up being a victim of the weapon it is named after.
The late #QueenElizabethII has visited India three times – in 1961, 1983 and 1997, each time accompanied by her husband and Duke of Edinburgh, the late Prince Philip. Her first visit came nearly 15 years after India's independence.
#KingCharlesIII takes over as the British monarch after the death of #QueenElizabethII, and that will lead to a demonetisation in the UK. New coins and currency notes will be minted and printed after the designs are approved.
The death of #QueenElizabethII has given the British monarchy its first King after over 70 years. The old coins and notes will be slowly phased out of circulation.
The old coins and notes featuring #QueenElizabeth II will continue to be legal tender for the time being.
The #iPhone14 is the base variant and comes with a few upgrades over its predecessor, including the A15 Bionic chipset, upgraded cameras and longer battery life.
Astronomers focused the #JamesWebbSpaceTelescope on Tarantula Nebula, one of the brightest and most active star-forming regions in our galactic backyard, and found thousands of young stars they hadn't seen before, images released by NASA on Tuesday show.
The Tarantula Nebula, is an immense cloud of gas and dust about 160,000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the #MilkyWay. The nebula has birthed some massive stars, a few that are more than 150 times the mass of our sun.
NASA's #JamesWebbSpaceTelescope have detected evidence of carbon dioxide in a world beyond our solar system.
The planet, called WASP-39 b, is a gas giant orbiting a sun-like star about 700 light-years away, where temperatures are consistently about 900 degrees Celsius.
While the planet was first discovered in 2011, Webb's sensitive infrared instruments allowed researchers to analyze it in detail, definitely detecting carbon dioxide there for the first time.
